Yep I don't think it's all that far round to be honest, mebbe 10 to 15 miles'ish..

Look out for the 3ft deep puddles and take a spark plug spanner

And before any gay jokes start appearing, I fell off and landed on my bum and yes it hurt...

Have a look at the dark grey plastic casing on the right hand side of the engine (also covers the front sprocket). If this is a one-piece item that fits against the engine then there isn't a flywheel weight fitted. If you can see a 1/2" spacer in the same dark grey plastic then you should be ok. Whip the 3 allen bolts out and take the cover off, the flywheel weight will be held on with 2 large phillips headed bolts. By the way, a 270 Beta without a flywheel weight would be vicious...

I heard Keith say that their website wasn't working or being updated any more or something so the results will be sent via post. I hope my results get lost in the post...

My favourites From me?

They looked like mega sections to me Blood thirsty?

Ben Hemmo deserves a win up there

Ugliest bike ever? http://www.scorpa.fr/fiche_moto.php?moto_id=4

Now't wrong with mine and I haven't heard of anyone else having any problems either Next year's bikes will probably start appearing Sept/Oct...

I agree, I've heard that there will be no more 07 bikes this year which seems daft to me. Unless, The 08 bikes are released very early (just after the SSDT)

Junior?

I think he forgot to mention it on purpose! Saturday night 2004, Ishy sloped off to bed at about 9pm and took the phone off the hook

UPDATE Last Sunday I went practising at a venue with a good long beck and plenty of banks and hills to play about on. The water was fast and deep (almost too deep) and the bank/hills were slippy and slimy due to not getting much sun after the morning frost. The bike performed as expected in the beck sections, it felt weird but nice to ride it without having to use the clutch, as it simply plodded along on tickover. I rode some sections in 2nd gear and it coped really well at the slower speed - just a pity my brain needed to work a bit faster. It felt very stable too, big confidence booster for me especially when approaching waterfalls/steps etc. The biggest thing I noticed was how much the bike gripped on snotty hills, I thought I was on form for a change but sadly it was the bike making me look half good. Two other local lads were there and they both had a go on the bike. One was riding a new Sherco 290 and the other was on a Mont 4rt. The chosen section was a shortish blip through the beck, up a 3ft step and onto a wet/muddy/icy flat bit before the long, steep grassed hill. There was no grip on the flat bit and not a lot on the slimy grass either. Young Ross got up it maybe 3 times out of 10 on his trusty Mont. I don't think he tried this section on the Beta but he was impressed with the way it gripped on other hills he'd tried out earlier. Nathan got his Sherco halfway up the first 10 times and almost made it 3/4's of the way up the other 50 times (He doesn't give up easily) He rode the Mont and Beta up some beck sections and said anyone who rides one at the SSDT are simply cheating... He rode the Beta up the hill section and made it up 4 times out of 5 - very impressed Both of them are good expert course riders in the Yorkshire centre. Would they buy one? I doubt they would change from their preferred bike but they were definitely surprised with the power delivery and how light the bike felt, even comparing it to 2 strokes. Anyone else had a good go on one yet?

PM'd you with the headers - might be easier to ring the ACU and ask to speak to Emma

Ooh, copy the item number and paste it into your address bar - it brings up the eBay page without having to search and p*** about

Crossing a boggy moor and a branch got jammed between the rear wheel/swinging arm and was battering the back of my right leg. I stopped and pulled the slimy/squishy branch out but then noticed it had a hoof on the end of it No idea where the rest of the dead sheep was...

If this is a multiple choice type question, I'll guess at No. 2 being the service offered for

Well spotted! If she's done A plus C to Z correctly then I just might forgive her

Very true

Did anybody else receive an email from Emma Connop at the ACU today? If you did, I've now got your email address and you've got mine along with the other 500 addresses that were publicised for all to see/use/abuse in the CC: field! Muppets
